The HuffPo's Anti-Religion Religion Blog

Posted by Gregory of Yardale at March 31, 2010 9:25 AM

The Huffington Post recently launched a "Religion Blog" that was promised to be a "wide-ranging discussion on religion and spirituality." So far, the range of discussion has been between people who hate Christianity and people who really hate Christianity.

The site didn't waste any time throwing punches. In its first two weeks, it churned out articles by a liberal nun calling Catholicism sexist; a Rabbi claiming that Judaism will "stagnate and cease to be meaningful" unless it participates in the "green movement;" an avowed atheist comparing those who believe in God to a 7-year-old still believing in the tooth fairy; a science writer warning being religious could lead to "dangerous side-effects" such as "the crusader jihadist mentality;" and a neuroscientist calling those who believe in "obsolete religious ideas" a "lunatic fringe."

Eighty-one percent of the stories and columns (13 out of 16) that focused on Christianity either criticized certain Christian denominations, leaders or beliefs. Five other articles negatively portrayed well-known Christians, specifically Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin and Rick Santorum; no articles portrayed those three in a good light.

To paraphrase the Apostle James, the only religion the Progressive Left tolerates is religion that lets them do whatever they want in the name of self-gratification without consequences.
